If you have one of the later versions especially the newest version of
Norton, you can boot from the CD and run the scanners from there.
This has helped me on more than one occasion trying to clean bugs from
systems.
Just my 2 cents worth

Not specifically reflector issue, but relevant to subscribers.
Suggest giving your ISP a call and ask about their AV scanning (if they
have one). While I have Norton installed here, my ISP scans *all*
incoming and outgoing mail for viruses - and has caught plenty!! On
your own system, BTW, it may be useful to boot your it to DOS and run
Norton AV manually. This is what I finally had to do when one sneaked
thru (former ISP, now out of business, + I had neglected to update the
definitions). For some reason, it wasn't spotted running it in Windows.
